Here’s her advice for Monday, often the hardest day of the week to get going:

“Monday: Not motivated to market yourself today?

There were times you didn’t want to go to work when you had a job, but you still did. Now you’re working for yourself, so do something. Anything. Find something on your to-do list that you can accomplish quickly. Keep going. You’ll be glad you did.”

Find a local job search support group and join it . . . ‘Misery loves company’ is an old cliché that is true, and with “fellow (job seeker) sufferers” around you, it will be obvious to you that you aren’t the only one struggling. You aren’t the only one who isn’t getting 100% (or even 50%) call-backs. And you may learn more about how to job search effectively – social media, job boards, local networking opportunities, etc.”
